Chao Doi Cafe — Restaurant in Pattaya City

The place itself is very nice with plenty of roomy outdoor seating and also a sizeable inside area with aircon. The cafe is clean and offers free wifi.

It is located directly across the street from the beach, so the view also is relatively nice.

The main entry door opens by hand movement in front of a sensor which makes for easy entry and exit when carrying things, which is helpful.

The have a nearby exterior bathroom with clean toilets and a sink to wash hands.

While the atmosphere here is clean and nice, the coffee isn't very good (I give it 2 stars) and the chocolate fudge cake, while moist, tasted just average (3 stars).

While they accepy QR payments for locals with Thai bank accounts, they do not accept credit cards, so tourists are stuck paying with cash, unfortunately.

Overall: a nice atmosphere with average food and not very...

The atmosphere is good and snacks are mostly good. But, today I ordered an ice Americano and it was so sweet that it was undrinkable. When I mentioned it to the cashier, she had a horrible attitude about taking it back. One of the rudest service staff I've ever encountered anywhere. They might have asked me if I wanted sugar when ordering but I clearly didn't understand because an Americano never has sugar. Chao Doi management should differentiate between plain coffee drinks and the sweetened concoctions that are loaded with sugar. Espresso, Americano, black coffee, etc., should never have sugar added. There are sweetners on the Chao Dot counter if someone wants it. Finally, to that attractive server who was so rude, lose the attitude. If the customer isn't rude to you, you shouldn't be rude to the customer. Kindness costs...

I like the place and I stop by with my son a few times a week but yesterday we were denied service in rude form by the cashier on the afternoon shift with short hair because my 2 year old son did not want to wear a mask (I was wearing mine).

I understand that rules are there and we should all stay safe, but some common logic and basic customer service should be applied. All the customers sitting inside the cafe within 2 meters eating and drinking for an hour are doing so without their mask on and that is ok and I am being denied service in rude form for trying to buy a coffee to go with a child too little to wear a mask. I think I will stick with other coffee shops in Jomtien Beach area that value return customers and treat people...
